Features
▌Aqua Angel is a series of earthquake-resistant and firefighting water tanks capable of safely storing water necessary for emergencies
- The robustness of the steel plate and corrosion resistance of the FRP are combined in a three-layer structure forming the inside and outside of the tank providing strength and total water-tightness.
- The use of steel plates with excellent resilience provides superior earthquake resistance and eliminates cracks.
- Seamless FRP coating on the inside and outside completely prevents electrolytic corrosion.
- The cylindrical shape provides resistance to both soil pressure and internal pressure.
- The lightweight materials make delivery and installation easy. This leads to shorter construction periods.
- During emergencies, the stored water can be used as drinking water by employing filters and purifiers.

Construction Process
▌Unitary Horizontal Cylinder Type Water Storage Tank


1.Installation preparations
● Construct flat foundation with concrete.(Foundation may be unnecessary depending on soil quality and groundwater level)
● Lay rubber sheet to prevent damage to tank.

2.Delivery
● Deliver unitary tank by 10-ton truck or low-bed trailer.

3.Installation
● Attach designated wire and hooks to lifting lugs on tank and suspend it.
● Crane capacity must be at least 20 tons.(Varies depending on work radius)

4.Back filling
● Use earth and sand suited to site or soil generated from excavation or otherwise and exercise caution with back filling.
● Add water while sufficiently compacting backfill.
● Do not drive heavy machinery directly over water tank when back filling.
